Top Altcoins Price Forecast: Ripple, Cardano and Solana halt decline amid signs of exhaustion

Top altcoins, Ripple, Cardano, and Solana, hold steady on Thursday, halting the prevailing decline linked to hot US inflation data and the post-US midterms period. The brief pause suggests that the markets have priced in October’s hot CPI of 0.4%, beating the 0.3% market expectation.

Ripple pares losses above $1.00 amid subdued investor interest

Ripple pares losses on Thursday, trading around $1.05 amid a largely lethargic broader cryptocurrency market. Bulls have found no relief since the sharp correction on November 5 and are banking on support between $1.00 and $1.05 to push for range trading ahead of fresh recovery attempts.

Crypto Today: Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP trade under pressure as bottom signals remain elusive

Bitcoin corrects near a key support range near $73,000 on Thursday, trading alongside altcoin majors Ethereum and Ripple. The smart contract token, ETH, holds above its $2,000 demand area, while the remittance token XRP upholds technical weakness, raising correction odds below $1.00.

Pi Network rebound loses steam ahead of critical resistance trendline

Pi Network price is holding steady around $0.0700 at press time on Thursday, consolidating around the round figure after Tuesday’s 8% rebound. The rebound coincided with a massive outflow of more than 590 million PI tokens from the OKX exchange wallet, suggesting reduced downside pressure.

Bitcoin: Bears tighten grip as BTC eyes fifth weekly loss
Bitcoin (BTC) remains under pressure, down over 3% this week, trading near $75,500 on Friday and heading for its fifth straight weekly loss. Persistent outflows from US-listed BTC spot Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs), a sharp sell-off in US technology stocks, and rising market liquidations are weighing on sentiment and limiting Crypto King’s recovery attempts.
